I think you are reading the whole story incorrectly.

So Sessions tried to clean house and Trump stopped him.

Not exactly. I believe Trump was fine with Sessions cleaning house, but he didn't want to accept Rosenstein's resignation because he wanted him to stay in that U.S. Attorney post while his nomination was being processed. Remember that Rosenstein wasn't confirmed until late April, so he would have been sitting in limbo for nearly two months -- during which time he would be getting calls on a daily basis from big law firms looking to hire him.

A President has much more important things to do than to talk about himself like a teenage girl on social media. It's damn embarrassing.

I was of the same mind last year up until the time he was tweeting useless, unnecessary bullsh!t about that former Miss Universe contestant who nobody had ever heard of before. That nearly cost him the election.

Since then, I've recognized that many of these messages have become a powerful weapon in destroying the monopoly of the mainstream media. It's also become a great tool for one of the most powerful weapons a political figure has when dealing with adversaries: incessant, entertaining ridicule.

I laid out the timeline in that prior post not to criticize Trump's comments about Sessions, but to support my contention that this is all a well-rehearsed game of distraction that involves both Trump and Sessions.

Somewhere, there’s a Nostradamus quatrain to be found, and you’re just the guy to find it...lolol.

His comments on Twitter have gotten out of control. The majority of them are ego-driven drivel.
He is the President of the United States, and this has become embarrassing. And every one of you would have thought Obama an egomaniacal fool if he had tweeted about himself with the “whoa is me crap” all the time. How many times on FR did people comment on how many times Obama said I in a speech? Trump can’t stop talking about himself, and everytime somebody says something about him that he doesn’t like he goes running to Twitter to whine about it. Thin-skinned much?

We just had 8 years of that! I’m starting to wonder who’s more sensitive!
